Adobe Bridge permission issues when working with network account

We have some users using Adobe Bridge CS3, CS4 and CS5.
They are using Bridge to browse arround the file server.
I have ACL's so the users can have full access using the Finder, deleting, making folders etc.
Users are logged in to their AD account with their home folder synced to a Mac OS X server 10.6.4.
Unless they are Posix owner of a folder they can't make changes or nothing using Bridge.
If they log in to a local account on a Mac and then manually connect to a share on the same server all is fine with Bridge. They can make folders, delete files etc etc.
Any ideas?
I know Adobe made it easy for themselfs years ago by simply stating it is not supported to work on a server using any Adobe app.

As you said Adobe washed their hands of the matter and as any business customer is almost certainly going to use a server, and as Adobe products are so expensive pretty much only business customers can afford them, this is totally inexcusable.
I had a similar network login related problem with Acrobat Pro in version 7.0 which after +two years+ (no exaggeration) was eventually fixed in Acrobat Pro 8.1. Unfortunately it was then broken again in Acrobat Pro 9.0. Based on my experiences with Acrobat Pro and due to a totally different reason (nothing to to do with using Adobe SW) I found that when I switched from using AFP for network home directories to instead using NFS, my problems with Adobe software and network login accounts went away.
So, it might be worth your thinking about switching to using NFS for home directories as a workaround.
Adobe have become even worse than Microsoft for their software. They use a variety of sucky installers instead of Apple's free Installer (Microsoft have switched to using Apple's Installer), they use product activation, they are even worse than MS Office at working with servers. The only redeeming fact Adobe has is that their Mac and Windows products are mostly equivalent unlike Microsoft who still cripple their Mac software.

  • Bluetooth issue when working with Safari but not other applications

    I have tried two new bluetooth headsets (Motorola 9HD and Sony DR-BT100cx) that both can Pair with and work just fine with the local itunes application and any DVD I use. But these devices do not work with Safari. I tried going to Hulu, YouTube, etc and i can tell the bluetooth device is 'listening' because I can hear it click or wait for a signal. But I never hear anything. If i switch over to DVD or my Podcasts that are local, it works fine. If I go to bluetooth settings and select 'stop using headset' the MacBook speakers pick up right away.
    Note: I am a brand new Mac user, so please disregard my OS version I have selected. I have no idea how to find my OS version, nor do I know how to install Firefox to see if it is simply a browser issue.
    Thanks,
    Jay

    I have the same issue. I've tried 3 different btooth headsets, and they all react the same:
    - music: ok
    - skype: ok
    - webcasts / video (safari or firefox): no sound, and video stops
    HOWEVER: same system, same headset, using Internet Explorer in my windows xp VM: everything works.
    Anyone know how to contact Apple and log this issue?

  • IWork and iCloud don't work with network account

    I am trying to access files that I have saved on my icloud account but when I login with my network account, iWork apps just error when I choose iCloud and it shows me my document folder.  If I login to a local account it works correctly.  I go to open a document in an iWork document and choose iCloud it correctly shows the documents that I have in iCloud.  Is this a server issue or is there something that I am doing wrong.  I do have webdav running. could that be confusing it?

    HI,
    Try repairing disk permissions...
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Does fusion drive work with network accounts

    Hi,
    We are planning to buy new desktop systems.
    Since we work with big files, we love the idea about Fusion drive.
    Now my only question. Does this help when you use Network drives.
    Since the files are not stored on the system, but on the network, I think its better to have a server with fusion in it?
    An other solution might be using a mobile account on the desktop servers.
    Since (a copy of) all files is stored on the computer I think the speed will be approved if we use files wit fusion drive.
    Hope somebody can give his opinion with should be the best solution.
    Now working on the systems is very slow, and often a "turning ball" system is there, when we are accessing files.
    Regards,
    Flip

    Hi Uptime Jeff,
    I 100% agree with your comment.
    I would love to stop using network drives. It is slow, and I have often problems if the network is having issues.
    There is only 1 reason why we use network drives and that is because we work on iMacs in office, and use Macbooks abrought. Since we can use the same homedrive (especially the /library/ folder with settings, passwords etc) on iMac and Macbook we make use of network drives.
    Is there an other way to do this, then we can stop the full network drive.

  • Performance issues when working with huge lists

    I’ve got a script that reads a large CSV spreadsheet
    and parses the data into a list of the form [[A1,B1,C1],
    [A2,B2,C2], [A3,B3,C3]] and a second list of the form
    [#A1:B1,#A2:B2,#A3:B3] etc… The actual spreadsheet is about
    10 columns x 10,000 rows. Reading the file string goes fast enough,
    the parsing starts off fast but slows to a crawl after about 500
    rows (I put the row count on the stage to check progress). Does
    anyone know if the getaProp, addProp, and append methods are
    sensitive to the size of the list?
    A sample of one of the parsing loops is below. I’m
    aware all interactivity will stop as this is executed. This script
    is strictly for internal use, it crunches the numbers in two
    spreadsheets and merges the results to a new CSV file. The program
    is intended to run overnight and the new file harvested in the
    morning.

    > Does anyone know if the getaProp, addProp, and
    > append methods are sensitive to the size of the list?
    Is this a trick question? Sure they are. All of them.
    Addprop and append are quite fast (due to the list object
    scalable
    preallocating memory as required), so i doubt that they are
    the cause of
    the problem.
    GetAProp will search each item in the list, therefore, if you
    are
    searching for the last item, or if the item is not in the
    list, the more
    the items, the slower the command.
    Didn't go through all your code but I noticed
    - this: repeat with rowCount = 2 to file2string.line.count
    Big no-no! Line counting is a very slow operation for it to
    be a
    evaluated in a loop.
    - and this: myFile2data.append(myLineData)
    String operations like this require memory reallocation, and
    therefore
    are very slow. If you do conclude that such an operation
    causes the
    problem, consider using a preallocated buffer (create a big
    string in
    advance) and then use
    mydata.char.[currentoffset..(currentoffset+newstr.length)]=newstr
    This can make code run even hundreds times faster, compared
    to the
    append method.

  • Win7-64 Photoshop CC blank Save As dialog, then crash, when working with video / frame animations

    Hi, I recently updated to CC from CS6 and am having issues when working with PSDs containing video layers, or are set up as frame animations:  When attempting to Save As, the dialog will be completely blank except for the Save and Cancel buttons.   If I press cancel, then return to Save As, CC then often crashes.
    Here is the Error Event from Event Viewer:
    Faulting application name: Photoshop.exe, version: 14.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x5176451b
    Faulting module name: MediaCoreIF.DLL, version: 7.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x51573a21
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    Fault offset: 0x00000000001fca98

    Report Id: db6d5f8f-0a0c-11e3-9df9-0026b9cc01d1
    So far I am only having these issues if I have been working with video layers and then frame animations.  Frame animations in particular seem to cause instability as I can often work with video layers all day without a problem.  Then if I import video frames to layers, or open a PSD containing a frame animation, the Save As may not necessarily work.
    Sometimes closing and restarting Photoshop will allow me to save again, but then sometimes a whole system reboot is required.  It is only temporary though.
    I am not running antivirus software or other apps aside from what starts at boot.

    Frustrating that this thread has petered out, since I'm having the exact same issue. Did you ever find a way to improved stability?
    Also of note, the issue followed me across machines. Two weeks ago I purchased a new machine, figured if that didn't solve the problem nothing would... It didn't. :\
    The only similar factors are that the machines both are 64bit Windows 7 (a fresh OEM install on the new box) and have nVidia-brand graphics cards. (Again, though - not the SAME graphics card, picked up a new one with the new machine.) No drive cloning was involved: this is completely new hardware, a fresh factory install of Windows 7, different antivirus (went from AVG to Avast), and new download of Photoshop CC from CreativeCloud.
    Looks like our event details are quite similar, too.

  • Crashing when working with cutaways

    Hey all!
    really enjoying the iMovie 11. It's, how do I say, magical
    But there is an annoying issue - when working with cutaways, especially when i have two ore more in a row, once trying to align them so they appear after each other, iMovie always crashes....
    Anyone else have similar issues?
    All updates have been installed....

    Okay that was a no-brainer. Since it was my first time using it, I had to go to Preferences and check "advanced features." Simple enough. I found this out while I was on hold, all on my own. Being put on hold is good for self-resiliency.

  • Automatic service setup with network accounts

    Hi all,
    I'm having terrible trouble getting automatic service (e.g. iCal, iChat, etc.) setup to work with network accounts, either with network home directories or local home directories, and I can't work out what I'm doing wrong.
    When I log in as a local user and join the Network Account Server, all services get set up as expected, without problems. When I log in with a network account however, whether the account has a server-hosted home directory or a local home directory, services aren't automatically set up, I don't get the auto configuration wizard/dialogue, and attempting to join the network account server again fails. Surely there's a way for network accounts to have services automatically set up on initial login? Any ideas?

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working - has issue been resolved?

    Hello.
    I am experiencing the above problem with a new install of CS6.
    Has this issue been resolved?
    CS6 Design and Web Premium installed on Win 7 pro 64 bit Dell Precision laptop. Error with Adobe Bridge cs6: "Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working", problem event name "APPCRASH". Error occurs when opening Bridge from Photoshop and other apps (Browse in Bridge) and directly from desktop or start menu. Also a cache directory is not being created under c:\user\<user>\appdata\roaming\adobe\bridge\. Holding ctrl key down and double clicking icon gets same message, cannot get at reset window.
    Performed the following with no change: verified Bridge and full suite is on latest version (Bridge=5.0.2.4); created desktop icon directly from bridge.exe; verified application was installed and is starting with administrator privileges; verified latest display driver installed; performed complete uninstall of CS6, CC cleaner tool run, then full reinstall; Error under Event Viewer: faulting application: Bridge.exe and faulting module name: ntdll.dll; disabled UAC; tested memory for damage using MemTest86-good.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    A follow up to the above.
    There appears to be a number of possible causes for this type of error. In my case it was somewhat specific. I had a stand alone copy on this same machine previously of Adobe Photoshop CS2 (only) which was completely uninstalled prior to the installation of CS6. There is an issue with Bridge CS6 being installed on a machine that has Bridge CS2 on it. I wasn't aware of Bridge being present with my copy of Photoshop CS2 but apparently there were at least some components of Bridge CS2 left after the uninstall. The workaround that solved the issue for me was the creation of an empty folder:
    C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS2
    For those of you who may have this situation.
    Here is where I found the solution (sixth thread down):

    Raw files from the new Nikon D810 will not open with either Photoshop CS5.1 or Lightroom 4.  When will a real Adobe solution be available to work with Raw (NEF) files in their native format, using CS5.1 and LR4?

    Clarification: this is a user forum; you are not addressing Adobe here.
    The answer to your question as phrased is: never.
    CS5 is history and it is not longer supported.  There will not be any updates or bug fixes for CS5.
    You need to convert the raw NEF files from your D810 to raw DNGs using the free, standalone Adobe DNG Converter 8.6 RC (beta), the first version ever to support that camera..

    Adobe guideline when working with freelance team members or agencies:

    Our client has an ongoing discussion with a freelance designer who was hired to make editions of their interactive magazine.
    The publisher has briefed the designer on their digital magazine and the designer created the folio-files, based on their input (design, pictures, video, audio, texts, etc) and their printed magazine. The publisher is the owner of the copyrights on this material.
    The designer used the software licenses provided by the publisher, but refuses to hand over the Indesign-file after recieving full payment for his design work. Is there a Adobe guideline or 'best practice' I can consult in this matter to help resolve this discussion?
    Thank you.

    Hi Yves,
    I know this case very well and here the publisher has payed for all time spent in and the cost of DPS training. The material is copyrighted and owned by the publisher and he also owns the DPS license.
